Another bit of news...

I have joined the Art Glitter Design Team!
I will officially start my posts in May...but you know me...I use what I love, so I have already broke into my new goodies for my Mother's Day tag that I have created for the 
 new 

I thought I would create a quick and simple tag using the
from Gecko Galz.
Pin It!
I used the  Brown Sugar Baker's Twine, Jumbo and regular size moss green leaves, newsprint candies, latte buttons, melon hand dyed silk, diamond satin olde gold ribbon, crochet lace and moss green jute twine from Really Reasonable Ribbon.  I also used the scor tape to adhere my diamond ribbon, and candi fix it foam pads to elevate my newsprint candies.
Now to the delish glitter :0)
I used my favorite Art Glitter Designer Glue (Dries Clear)..it works great with the #162 Just peachy transparent glitter that I applied to the rose center piece edges and butterfly wings. There is a Art Glitter Designer Glue that dries white...but I wanted to see through the glue.  Next I used the Art Glitter Glue and Fine tip applicator..(.honestly...this glue and applicator are my FAVORITE.  I have loved them for a LONG time), to go outline the edge of my tag and Mother text box and applied the #300 Camel glitter.l   I love it!!
I just love how my little tag turned out!!
I will be sharing with

    I'm curious to find out what blog platform you are using? I'm experiencing some
    minor security problems with my latest site and I would like to find something more safeguarded.
    Do you have any solutions?
